Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of bubble blowing, and more particularly to a bubble machine. Background Technology

[0002] A bubble machine is a machine that can be used to produce bubbles, which can be used not only for daily entertainment, but also to create a certain atmosphere on stage.

[0003] Existing bubble machines include an oil pump for delivering e-liquid, a heater connected to the oil pump via an oil delivery pipe, a smoke collection box for collecting the smoke generated by the heater heating the e-liquid, a bubble nozzle connected to the smoke collection box and having a nozzle opening, a liquid pump for delivering bubble solution to the nozzle opening, a brush body that can be hung at the nozzle opening to form a bubble film, and a brush rod driver that drives the brush body to reciprocate at the nozzle opening. The bubble machine also includes a bubble-expanding fan for blowing the bubble film.

[0004] However, some of the smoke condenses into smoke oil in the channel of the bubble nozzle and flows to the nozzle opening, affecting the brush body's reciprocating movement at the nozzle opening and thus forming a bubble film. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a bubble machine that reduces or even avoids the flow of vapor oil from the bubble channel of the film-forming nozzle to the outlet side, thereby affecting the formation of bubble film on the outlet side.

[0006] The bubble machine of this application embodiment includes:

[0007] Storage liquid, used to store bubble solution;

[0008] Oil storage tanks are used to store e-liquid;

[0009] A smoke collection box is used to store the smoke generated by the atomization of e-liquid from the oil storage tank;

[0010] A film-forming nozzle has a bubble channel and an inlet, an outlet, and a reflux port communicating with the bubble channel. The inlet and outlet of the film-forming nozzle are located on both sides of the bubble channel. The inlet of the film-forming nozzle is connected to the liquid storage and the smoke collection box.

[0011] A reflux tube, one end of which is connected to the film-forming nozzle and communicates with the reflux port.

[0012] For example, the reflux tube is directly connected to the film-forming nozzle and directly communicates with the reflux port; or

[0013] The reflux tube is connected to the film-forming nozzle via a conveying component, and the reflux tube is connected to the reflux port via the conveying component.

[0014] For example, the transmitting component includes a connecting pipe and a receiving part that are in communication with each other:

[0015] The receiving part corresponds to the return port, and the receiving part is used to receive liquid from the return port;

[0016] The connecting pipe is connected to and communicates with the return pipe, and the connecting pipe is used to transfer liquid from the return port to the return pipe.

[0017] For example, the bubble machine has a height direction and a length direction;

[0018] The conveying component includes a first part and a second part that are interconnected along the length of the bubble machine;

[0019] The first part is positioned below the return port along the height direction of the bubble machine and is spaced apart from the outer surface of the film-forming nozzle;

[0020] The second part is disposed below the film-forming nozzle along the height direction of the bubble machine and is either attached to or spaced from the outer surface of the film-forming nozzle.

[0021] For example, the conveying component further includes a connecting pipe, which is sleeved with the return pipe;

[0022] The conveying component further includes a conveying channel that runs through the first part, the second part, and the connecting pipe. The conveying channel connects the return port and the return pipe. The conveying channel is located at the bottom of the conveying component along the height direction.

[0023] For example, the first part includes a notch communicating with the transmission channel, and the first part also includes two first arc-shaped surfaces and two inclined surfaces separated by the notch. The notch is disposed below the return port along the height direction, one first arc-shaped surface and one inclined surface are connected, and the inclined surface is closer to the transmission channel than the first arc-shaped surface.

[0024] For example, the first portion includes at least one first arcuate surface, and the second portion includes a second arcuate surface, wherein the curvature of the at least one first arcuate surface and the curvature of the second arcuate surface are the same as the curvature of the outer surface of the film-forming nozzle.

[0025] For example, the bubble machine further includes a first mounting shell, and the film-forming nozzle is connected to the first mounting shell;

[0026] The first part is fixedly connected to the first mounting shell, and the side of the first part away from the second part is in contact with the first mounting shell. The first part is defined between the first mounting shell and the second part, and the gap area between the reflux port and the second part is defined by the first mounting shell and the second part.

[0027] For example, the bubble machine further includes a first mounting shell, a drive mechanism, a second mounting shell, and a first airflow drive component;

[0028] The other end of the return pipe is connected to and communicates with the smoke collection box or the oil storage tank. The return pipe is used to transfer liquid from the return port to the smoke collection box or the oil storage tank.

[0029] A portion of the film-forming nozzle is connected to the first mounting shell, and a portion of the film-forming nozzle is connected to the second mounting shell. The driving mechanism is disposed on the first mounting shell and the second mounting shell. The first airflow driving member is connected to the film-forming nozzle and the smoke collection box, and the first airflow driving member is in communication with the inlet of the film-forming nozzle and the smoke outlet of the smoke collection box. The first airflow driving member is used to transfer the smoke in the smoke collection box to the bubble channel of the film-forming nozzle.

[0030] For example, the other end of the return pipe is connected to and communicates with the smoke collection box or the oil storage tank, and the return pipe is used to transfer liquid from the return port to the smoke collection box or the oil storage tank.

[0031] The smoke collection box is provided with an inlet, an outlet and an oil outlet. A channel is formed inside the smoke collection box, and the channel of the smoke collection box connects the inlet, outlet and oil outlet of the smoke collection box. The oil outlet is connected to the oil storage tank and is used to transfer the smoke oil in the smoke collection box to the oil storage tank.

[0032] The smoke collection box includes a housing and at least one partition housed within the housing. The at least one partition is disposed between the inlet and outlet of the smoke collection box, and the housing and the at least one partition together define the channel of the smoke collection box.

[0033] The bubble machine of this application embodiment has a return port on the film-forming nozzle and connects the return port to the return pipe. The liquid in the bubble channel, such as e-liquid, will flow from the return port to the return pipe. Thus, the return pipe can transfer the e-liquid in the film-forming nozzle to other parts, such as the smoke collection box or the oil tank. This not only realizes the reuse of e-liquid, but more importantly, it can reduce or even prevent the e-liquid in the bubble channel of the film-forming nozzle from flowing to the outlet and affecting the formation of bubble film on the outlet side.

Detailed Implementation

[0059] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application provides a bubble machine 100 that combines the effects of smoke and bubbles, and can be used in stage performances, weddings, celebrations, and other occasions to create a certain visual effect. Specifically, the bubbles output by the bubble machine 100 are filled with smoke.

[0060] Specifically, in combination Figure 3a and Figure 3b As shown, the bubble machine 100 includes a heater 20 and a smoke collection box 30. The heater 20 heats the e-liquid, causing it to atomize and produce smoke. The smoke collection box 30 collects the smoke. After being discharged from the smoke collection box 30, the smoke reaches the location where the bubble film forms. As the bubble film gradually forms bubbles under the action of air pressure difference, smoke flows into the bubbles, thus filling them with smoke.

[0061] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the bubble machine 100 also includes a film-forming nozzle 21 and a film-brushing body 22. The film-brushing body 22 is movably disposed relative to the film-forming nozzle 21. When the film-brushing body 22 is movable relative to the film-forming nozzle 21, it enables the bubble solution to form a bubble film at the port of the film-forming nozzle 21. Furthermore, the bubble machine 100 also includes a liquid storage 23. The liquid storage 23 is used to store the bubble solution. Optionally, the film-forming nozzle 21 and the liquid storage 23 are connected by a delivery tube to guide the bubble solution in the liquid storage 23 to flow to the film-forming nozzle 21.

[0062] Combination Figure 3a and Figure 4 As shown, the bubble machine 100 also includes a first airflow drive 24, which is used to draw smoke from the smoke collection box 30 and drive the smoke to the location where the bubble film forms. Specifically, the first airflow drive 24 can be a fan. Specifically, the smoke flows to the film-forming nozzle 21. Exemplarily, the first airflow drive 24 connects the smoke collection box 30 and the film-forming nozzle 21, and the first airflow drive 24 connects the smoke collection box 30 and the film-forming nozzle 21 to drive the smoke in the smoke collection box 30 into the bubble channel of the film-forming nozzle 21.

[0063] Combination Figure 3a and Figure 5 As shown, the bubble machine 100 also includes an oil reservoir 25 for storing e-liquid. The e-liquid in the oil reservoir 25 is used to supply heat to the heater 20. In some embodiments, the bubble machine 100 also includes an oil pump 26 for drawing e-liquid from the oil reservoir 25 and delivering it to the heater 20. Further, the oil pump 26 and a corresponding conduit are connected between the oil reservoir 25 and the heater 20. In other embodiments, by defining the height relationship between the oil reservoir 25 and the heater 20, the oil reservoir 25 can also flow towards the heater 20 under the influence of gravity.

[0064] Combination Figure 3b and Figure 4 As shown, the bubble machine 100 also includes a second airflow drive 27, which generates an airflow to direct the generated bubbles away from the bubble machine 100, preventing bubbles from accumulating and colliding near the bubble machine 100. In some embodiments, the second airflow drive 27 is a fan. The bubble machine 100 also includes an airflow duct 271 connected to the second airflow drive 27. The airflow duct 271 is used to adjust the direction of the airflow generated by the second airflow drive 27.

[0065] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the bubble machine 100 includes a housing 28. A heater 20, a smoke collection box 30, a film-forming nozzle 21, an oil reservoir 25, a first airflow drive 24, and a second airflow drive 27 are all or partially installed within the housing 28.

[0066] In some implementations, combined Figure 2 As shown, the bubble machine 100 has a first reference direction F1. When the bubble machine 100 is in use, and is placed on the support surface in its normal operating state, the first reference direction F1 is approximately perpendicular to the support surface. Optionally, the housing 28 has a bottom side, and a plurality of support legs 281 are connected to the bottom side of the housing 28. In the normal operating state, the housing 28 is supported on the plurality of support legs 281.

[0067] Combination Figure 3a and Figure 6 As shown, the smoke collection box 30 has a predetermined installation state relative to the housing 28 or other supporting structure. In the predetermined installation state, the first reference direction F1 of the bubble machine 100 is approximately the same as the vertically downward direction, and the smoke collection box 30 has a definite orientation relative to the housing 28 or other supporting structure, thus the various parts of the smoke collection box 30 have a definite height relative relationship. More specifically, the smoke collection box 30 has a second reference direction F2, which is approximately the same as the first reference direction F1.

[0068] Combination Figures 6 to 9 As shown, this application also provides a smoke collection box 30, which can be applied to the bubble machine 100 in at least any of the above embodiments. The smoke collection box 30 is provided with an inlet 301 and an outlet 302. A channel 31 is formed inside the smoke collection box 30, which connects the inlet 301 and the outlet 302. The channel 31 includes at least one bent section 311, such that the length of the channel 31 is greater than the straight-line distance between the inlet 301 and the outlet 302.

[0069] In this application, the smoke collection box 30 receives smoke generated from e-liquid atomization through inlet 301. The smoke then flows along channel 31 until it reaches outlet 302. After exiting the smoke collection box 30 from outlet 302, the smoke is subsequently used to aerate a bubble film, producing bubbles filled with smoke. Given a fixed volume of the smoke collection box 30, the channel 31 includes at least one bend 311, preventing the smoke at inlet 301 from flowing in a straight line to outlet 302, thus increasing the length of channel 31. This increased length prolongs the time the smoke spends within channel 31, increasing the chance of e-liquid particles adhering to the internal wall of the smoke collection box 30. This reduces the content of e-liquid particles in the discharged smoke, eliminating the need for a porous filter structure near outlet 302 and preventing smoke blockage caused by the porous filter structure. This ensures the smoke collection box 30 has a stable smoke output efficiency.

[0070] Understandably, as the length of channel 31 increases, the time for smoke to flow in channel 31 is extended, thereby correspondingly increasing the cooling time of the smoke. This allows the smoke discharged from the outlet 302 of the smoke collection box 30 to cool down to a suitable temperature, preventing damage to other parts of the bubble machine 100 due to excessively high smoke temperature, and preventing the formation of bubbles from being affected by excessively high smoke temperature.

[0071] Understandably, since the smoke collection box 30 has a channel 31 inside and the channel 31 includes at least one bend 311, compared with the smoke collection box 30 with a cavity between the inlet 301 and the outlet 302, the smoke collection box 30 of this application allows the smoke to flow orderly to the outlet 302 after entering, avoiding the disorderly alternating discharge of high-temperature smoke and cooled smoke from the outlet 302, which is beneficial to ensuring the temperature uniformity of the discharged smoke.

[0072] Optionally, combined Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in the predetermined installation state, the height of the inlet 301 is lower than the height of the outlet 302. On the one hand, this allows the e-liquid focused at the boundary surface of the channel 31 to flow to the vicinity of the inlet 301 under the action of gravity, which is beneficial for the recycling of e-liquid. On the other hand, since the outlet 302 has a higher relative height, it can prevent the focused e-liquid from clogging the outlet 302, thus ensuring the smoke output efficiency of the smoke collection box 30. Understandably, along the second reference direction F2, the inlet 301 is downstream of the outlet 302.

[0073] In the intended installation state, the height of the inlet 301 is close to or the same as the height of the outlet 302.

[0074] The bend 311 is arc-shaped, zigzag-shaped, or spiral-shaped. Understandably, the flow direction of the smoke changes after passing through the bend 311. Optionally, the channel 31 includes a number of sequentially connected bends 311. Two connected bends 311 can have the same shape or different shapes.

[0075] In some implementations, combined Figure 8 As shown, the channel 31 includes at least two straight segments 312. A bend 311 is connected between the two straight segments 312. Optionally, the bend 311 may be connected to the inlet 301 via one of the straight segments 312. Optionally, the bend 311 may be connected to the outlet 302 via one of the straight segments 312. Optionally, one bend 311 may be connected to another bend 311 via one of the straight segments 312.

[0076] Combination Figure 8 As shown, for the two straight segments 312 connected to the same bend 311, the two straight segments 312 are arranged in parallel, which is beneficial for the two straight segments 312 to have a uniform spacing size and to reduce the space occupied by the two straight segments 312 as a whole, thereby making full use of the internal space of the smoke collection box 30 and facilitating further increase in the length of the channel 31.

[0077] Combination Figure 8As shown, the straight segment 312 has a first end 313 and a second end 314 opposite to each other. Along the predetermined flow direction of the smoke in the channel 31, the first end 313 is closer to the outlet 302 than the second end 314, and the second end 314 is closer to the inlet 301 than the first end 313. Understandably, when the smoke flows in the channel 31, the smoke first passes through the second end 314 of the straight segment 312, and then passes through the first end 313 of the straight segment 312.

[0078] Combination Figure 8 As shown, in the predetermined installation state of the smoke collection box 30, the height of the first end 313 of the straight segment 312 is lower than the height of the second end 314 of the straight segment 312. When e-liquid particles focus at the boundary surface of the straight segment 312 to form flowable e-liquid, the straight segment 312 can guide the e-liquid to flow along the direction from the first end 313 to the second end 314, allowing the e-liquid to gradually flow to a position near the inlet 301. Furthermore, the smoke collection box 30 has an outlet 323, which is located near the inlet 301 and is used to discharge the e-liquid flowing to the vicinity of the inlet 301. The outlet 323 is connected to the oil storage tank 25 via an oil delivery pipe, allowing the e-liquid collected from the smoke collection box 30 to be reused, thereby reducing e-liquid consumption. Understandably, along the second reference direction F2, the second end 314 is downstream of the first end 313.

[0079] Combination Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in the predetermined installation state, the lower edge of the inlet 301 is higher than the outlet 323, thereby preventing e-liquid from leaking from the inlet 301. Understandably, along the second reference direction F2, the outlet 323 is downstream of the lower edge of the inlet 301. Optionally, the height of the outlet 323 is higher than the e-liquid level in the e-liquid reservoir 25, allowing the e-liquid in the vapor collection box 30 to flow into the reservoir 25 under gravity.

[0080] Optionally, the bubble machine 100 also includes an oil pump 26, which is connected between the oil outlet 323 and the oil tank 25. The oil pump 26 generates fluid pressure, causing the e-liquid in the smoke collection box 30 to flow into the oil tank 25.

[0081] Combination Figure 9As shown, in at least two adjacent straight segments 312, the straight segment 312 farther from the inlet 301 has a larger volume than the straight segment 312 connected to the inlet 301. For example, starting with the straight segment 312 connected to the inlet 301, the height of the last straight segment 312 is much greater than the height of the first straight segment 312, and the two have approximately the same width and length. In some embodiments, the smoke collection box 30 has three straight segments 312, with the height of the three straight segments 312 increasing sequentially starting with the straight segment 312 connected to the inlet 301. The last straight segment 312 connects to the outlet 302 and has a higher height range, thereby facilitating the docking of the outlet 302 with the intake end of the first airflow drive 24.

[0082] Combination Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the smoke collection box 30 includes a housing 32 and at least one partition 33 housed within the housing 32. An inlet 301 and an outlet 302 are disposed within the housing 32. At least one partition 33 is disposed between the inlet 301 and the outlet 302 to restrict the smoke at the inlet 301 from flowing in a straight line to the outlet 302. The housing 32 and the at least one partition 33 together define a channel 31. Specifically, given a fixed volume of the housing 32, by providing a partition 33 within the housing 32, the distance between opposing walls inside the smoke collection box 30 can be reduced while forming the channel 31. With the distance between the opposing walls reduced, the chance of e-liquid particles adhering to the walls increases when smoke passes between them, thereby more effectively reducing the content of e-liquid particles in the smoke.

[0083] Combination Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the outer casing 32 forms part of the boundary of the channel 31, thereby reducing the number of partitions 33 and helping to reduce the cost of the smoke collection box 30. Specifically, in the predetermined installation state, the inlet 301 may be located on the horizontal side of the outer casing 32 or on the bottom side of the outer casing 32. Specifically, the outlet 302 may be located on the horizontal side of the outer casing 32 or on the top side of the outer casing 32. In some other embodiments, the boundary of the channel 31 may also be entirely formed by the partitions 33 in the outer casing 32.

[0084] Combination Figure 8As shown, the bent section 311 of the channel 31 passes between one end of the partition 33 and the inner wall surface 322 of the housing 32. Specifically, the partition 33 has a first edge 331 and a second edge 332. The distance between the first edge 331 and the housing 32 is greater than the distance between the second edge 332 and the housing 32. The first edge 331 and the housing 32 define the bent section 311, that is, the bent section 311 of the channel 31 passes between one end of the partition 33 and the inner wall surface 322 of the housing 32. Optionally, the second edge 332 is integrally connected to the housing 32. Optionally, the second edge 332 is sealed against the inner wall surface 322 of the housing 32. Optionally, the second edge 332 and the inner wall surface 322 of the housing 32 can also be spaced apart.

[0085] The bent section 311 of the channel 31 extends through the partition 33. Understandably, a through hole is formed on the partition 33, and the inner edge of the through hole also serves as the boundary of the bent section 311.

[0086] The housing 32 contains a partition 33. Furthermore, a bend 311 corresponding to the partition 33 is located outside the connecting line between the inlet 301 and the outlet 302. The distance between the bend 311 and the connecting line is close to the horizontal width of the housing 32, effectively increasing the length of the channel 31.

[0087] Combination Figure 8 As shown, the housing 32 contains a plurality of partitions 33. The partitions 33 are linearly spaced. Specifically, by dividing the internal space of the housing 32 with the partitions 33, the overall length of the channel 31 can be effectively increased, and the distance between the internal opposing walls can be effectively reduced. Optionally, in a predetermined installation state, the linear distribution direction of the partitions 33 is approximately parallel to the horizontal direction. Optionally, in a predetermined installation state, the linear distribution direction of the partitions 33 is approximately parallel to the vertical direction. It can be understood that the partitions 33 are distributed approximately perpendicular to the second reference direction F2, or approximately parallel to the second reference direction F2.

[0088] Combination Figure 8 As shown, the straight segment 312 is formed between two adjacent and oppositely arranged partitions 33. Optionally, in a predetermined installation state, the two horizontally opposite partitions 33 respectively form the horizontal boundaries on both sides of the straight segment 312, while the inner wall surface 322 of the outer casing 32 forms the upper and lower boundaries of the straight segment 312. Optionally, in a predetermined installation state, the two vertically opposite partitions 33 respectively form the upper and lower boundaries on both sides of the straight segment 312, while the inner wall surface 322 of the outer casing 32 forms the horizontal boundary of the straight segment 312.

[0089] In some implementations, combined Figure 8As shown, for two adjacent partitions 33, the first edges 331 of the two partitions 33 are arranged in opposite directions, so that the bending sections 311 corresponding to the two partitions 33 have a large distance, which is beneficial to increasing the length of the channel 31.

[0090] The three adjacent partitions 33 are referred to as the first partition, the second partition, and the third partition, respectively. The end of the first partition away from its first edge 331 and the end of the third partition away from its first edge 331 are respectively connected to a portion of the inner wall surface 322 of the outer casing 32. The first edge 331 of the second partition is spaced apart from this portion of the inner wall surface 322 of the outer casing 32. Understandably, a bend 311 is located between the first and third partitions, and this bend 311 also passes between this portion of the inner wall surface 322 of the outer casing 32 and the first edge 331 of the second partition. More specifically, before passing through the bend 311, the smoke flows parallel to the second partition and toward this portion of the inner wall surface 322 of the outer casing 32. After passing through the bend 311, the smoke flows parallel to the second partition and away from this portion of the inner wall surface 322 of the outer casing 32.

[0091] The partition 33 can also form a bent section 311 by cooperating with the three inner wall surfaces 322 of the outer casing 32. Optionally, the three inner wall surfaces 322 of the outer casing 32 are arranged vertically in sequence. Optionally, two adjacent inner wall surfaces 322 of the three inner wall surfaces 322 can also form other forms of angular relationship.

[0092] When the partition 33 has through holes, the straight distance between the two through holes between two adjacent partitions 33 is greater than the straight distance between the two partitions 33, so that the bending sections 311 corresponding to the two partitions 33 have a larger distance, which is beneficial to increase the length of the channel 31.

[0093] The shape of the partition 33 can be regular or irregular. Specifically, regular shapes include, but are not limited to, rectangles and arcs. Optionally, when there are at least two partitions 33, the shapes of each partition 33 can be the same or different.

[0094] Combination Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the inner side of the outer casing 32 has a bottom surface 321. In the predetermined installation state, the height of the side of the bottom surface 321 near the inlet 301 is lower than the height of the side of the bottom surface 321 away from the inlet 301. Specifically, when e-liquid particles focus at the boundary surface of the straight segment 312 to form flowable e-liquid, under the action of gravity, the bottom surface 321 of the outer casing 32 can guide the e-liquid to gradually flow to the position near the inlet 301, thereby facilitating the collection and reuse of e-liquid. Understandably, along the second reference direction F2, the side of the bottom surface 321 near the inlet 301 is downstream of the side of the bottom surface 321 away from the inlet 301.

[0095] Understandably, the inner side of the housing 32 also has a top surface. In the intended installation state, the top surface is above the bottom surface 321. The top surface and bottom surface 321 can be the boundaries forming the channel 31. Understandably, along the second reference direction F2, the bottom surface 321 is downstream of the top surface.

[0096] Combination Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the outer casing 32 includes several casing walls 324, which enclose a certain internal space. This internal space forms a channel 31 under the definition of the partition 33. Specifically, the casing walls 324 include several pairs of opposing casing walls 324. In a predetermined installation state, one pair of casing walls 324 are spaced apart along a second reference direction F2. This pair of casing walls 324 can be used to form the upper and lower boundaries of the channel 31. The lower casing wall 324 is also provided with an oil outlet 323. Another pair of casing walls 324 are spaced apart along both horizontal directions. This pair of casing walls 324 is used to form the boundary of the bent section 311. Optionally, the first edge 331 of the partition 33 is opposite to and spaced apart from this casing wall 324. There is also a pair of casing walls 324 spaced apart along a horizontal front-back direction. One of these casing walls 324 has an inlet 301, and the other has an outlet 302.

[0097] In other embodiments, the smoke collection box 30 has a tube inside, which defines a channel 31.

[0098] like Figures 10a-18 As shown, in another optional embodiment of the bubble machine 100 of this application, Figures 10a-18 The bubble machine 100 shown is Figures 1-9 The differences between the bubble machines 100 shown include different smoke collection boxes and different film-forming nozzles, and Figures 10a-18 The bubble machine 100 shown is Figures 1-9 The difference in the bubble machine 100 shown also includes the return pipe 50.

[0099] Figures 10a-18 The storage liquid in the bubble machine 100 shown is used to store bubble solution. The storage liquid can be found in [reference needed]. Figures 1-9The liquid storage 23 shown will not be described in detail here.

[0100] Figures 10a-18 The oil reservoir in the bubble machine 100 shown is used to store e-liquid. The oil reservoir can be referenced. Figures 1-9 The oil storage tank 25 shown here will not be described in detail here.

[0101] In one alternative embodiment, Figures 10a-18 The bubble machine 100 shown may also include a brush body 22 and a first airflow drive component 24, wherein the brush body 22 can be referred to as Figures 1-9 The brush body 22 shown, wherein the first airflow drive element 24 can be referenced Figures 1-9 The first airflow drive component 24 shown will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that... Figures 10a-18 The bubble machine 100 shown may also include other components. Figures 10a-18 Other components of the bubble machine 100 shown can be found in the reference diagram. Figures 1-9 The bubble machine 100 shown here will not be described in detail here.

[0102] For example, Figures 10a-18 The smoke collection box 30 in the bubble machine 100 shown is used to store the smoke generated by the atomization of e-liquid from the oil tank 25. Figures 10a-18 The smoke collection box 30 in the bubble machine 100 shown is... Figures 1-9 The differences in the smoke collection box 30 shown include: Figures 10a-18 The smoke collection box 30 in the bubble machine 100 shown is also connected to and communicates with the film-forming nozzle 21 via a return pipe 50, which is used to transfer e-liquid from the film-forming nozzle 21 to the smoke collection box 30. Figures 1-18 As shown, the e-liquid in the smoke collection box 30 can flow back to the storage tank 25 through the outlet 323, enabling the reuse of the e-liquid. In other optional embodiments, the return pipe 50 is not connected to or communicates with the smoke collection box 30, but is connected to and communicates with the storage tank 25. Thus, the return pipe 50 can directly transfer the e-liquid from the return outlet 211 to the storage tank 25, also enabling the reuse of the e-liquid. It is understood that the return pipe 50 can also transfer the e-liquid to other locations.

[0103] It should be noted that some of the smoke condenses into smoke oil within the bubble channel 212 of the film-forming nozzle 21 and flows to the outlet 214 of the film-forming nozzle 21, affecting the reciprocating movement of the brush body 22 at the outlet 214 to form a bubble film. For example, the first airflow drive 24, such as a fan, drives the smoke in the smoke collection box 30 into the bubble channel 212 of the film-forming nozzle 21. During the rotation of the fan blades, some of the smoke condenses into smoke oil, which is then driven into the bubble channel 212 and, under the drive of the fan, to the outlet 214 of the film-forming nozzle 21, thereby affecting the reciprocating movement of the brush body 22 at the outlet 214 to form a bubble film. Based on this, in this embodiment of the application, a return port 211 is opened on the film-forming nozzle 21, and the return port 211 is connected to the return pipe 50. The e-liquid in the bubble channel 212 will flow from the return port 211 into the return pipe 50. Thus, the return pipe 50 can transfer the e-liquid in the film-forming nozzle 21 to the smoke collection box 30 or the oil storage tank 25. This not only realizes the reuse of e-liquid, but more importantly, it can reduce or even avoid the e-liquid in the bubble channel 212 of the film-forming nozzle 21 flowing to the outlet 214 and affecting the formation of bubble film on the outlet 214 side.

[0104] Specifically, such as Figures 10a-18 The smoke inlet, smoke outlet, channel 31, partition 33, and outer casing 32 of the smoke collection box 30 in the bubble machine 100 shown can be referenced. Figures 1-9 The smoke collection box 30 shown will not be described in detail here. In other alternative embodiments, Figures 10a-18 The smoke collection box 30 in the bubble machine 100 shown may not have a partition 33 inside, so that the inside of the smoke collection box 30 is a whole cavity structure.

[0105] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the film-forming nozzle 21 has a bubble channel 212 and an inlet 213, an outlet 214, and a return port 211 communicating with the bubble channel 212. The inlet 213 and the outlet 214 of the film-forming nozzle 21 are located on both sides of the bubble channel 212. The inlet 213 of the film-forming nozzle 21 is connected to the liquid storage 23 and the smoke collection box 30. One end of the return pipe 50 is connected to the film-forming nozzle 21 and communicates with the return port 211; the other end of the return pipe 50 is connected to and communicates with the smoke collection box 30 or the oil storage tank 25. The return pipe 50 is used to transfer liquid, such as smoke oil, from the return port 211 into the smoke collection box 30 or the oil storage tank 25. It is understood that the return pipe 50 is hollow.

[0106] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the reflux tube 50 is connected to the film-forming nozzle 21 via a transfer component 40, and the reflux tube 50 is connected to the reflux port 211 via the transfer component 40.

[0107] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the conveying component 40 includes a connecting pipe 42 and a receiving part 41 that are interconnected. The receiving part 41 corresponds to the return port 211 and is used to receive liquid, such as e-liquid, from the return port 211. The connecting pipe 42 is connected to and communicates with the return pipe 50 and is used to transfer liquid from the return port to the return pipe 50.

[0108] For example, such as Figure 10a and Figure 12b As shown, the bubble machine 100 has a height direction F3 and a length direction F4. Wherein, Figure 2 The first reference direction F1 shown can be understood as the height direction F3 of the bubble machine 100.

[0109] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the conveying component 40 includes a first part 411 and a second part 412 that are interconnected along the length direction F4 of the bubble machine 100. The first part 411 is disposed below the return port 211 along the height direction F3 of the bubble machine 100 and spaced apart from the outer surface of the film-forming nozzle 21. The second part 412 is disposed below the film-forming nozzle 21 along the height direction F3 of the bubble machine 100 and is either attached to or spaced apart from the outer surface of the film-forming nozzle 21.

[0110] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the connecting pipe 42 is sleeved with the return pipe 50; the conveying component 40 also includes a conveying channel 43 that runs through the first part 411, the second part 412 and the connecting pipe 42. The conveying channel 43 connects the return port 211 and the return pipe 50. The conveying channel 43 is located at the bottom of the conveying component 40 along the height direction F3.

[0111] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the first part 411 includes a notch 416 communicating with the conveying channel 43. The first part 411 also includes two first arcuate surfaces 414 and two inclined surfaces 415 separated by the notch 416. The notch 416 is located below the return port 211 along the height direction F3. One first arcuate surface 414 and one inclined surface 415 are connected, and the inclined surface 415 is closer to the conveying channel 43 than the first arcuate surface 414.

[0112] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the second part 412 includes a second arcuate surface 413, and the curvature of at least one first arcuate surface 414 and the curvature of the second arcuate surface 413 are the same as the curvature of the outer surface of the film-forming nozzle 21.

[0113] In other alternative embodiments, the reflux tube 50 is directly connected to the film-forming nozzle 21 and directly communicates with the reflux port 211. For example, the film-forming nozzle 21 can be directly provided with a sleeve at the corresponding reflux port 211 position, and the sleeve can be directly sleeved with the reflux tube 50.

[0114] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the bubble machine 100 also includes a first mounting shell 61, a film-forming nozzle 21 connected to the first mounting shell 61, a first portion 411 fixedly connected to the first mounting shell 61, and the side of the first portion 411 away from the second portion 412 fitting against the first mounting shell 61. The first portion 411 is defined between the first mounting shell 61 and the second portion 412, and the gap area between the return port 211 and the second portion 412 is defined by the first mounting shell 61 and the second portion 412. The conveying component 40 also includes a connecting portion 44 fixedly connected to the first portion 411 and / or the second portion 412, and the connecting portion 44 is connected to the first mounting shell 61, for example, by a screw connection.

[0115] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the bubble machine 100 also includes a drive mechanism 60 and a second mounting shell 62. A portion of the film-forming nozzle 21 is connected to the first mounting shell 61, and a portion of the film-forming nozzle 21 is connected to the second mounting shell 62. The drive mechanism 60 is disposed on the first mounting shell 61 and the second mounting shell 62, and is connected to the brush body 22 and used to drive the brush body 22 to move. The first mounting shell 61 and the second mounting shell 62 are connected.

[0116] For example, such as Figures 10a-18 As shown, the reflux port 211 is located in the middle of the film-forming nozzle 21; or the reflux port 211 is closer to the outlet 214 than the inlet 213; or the reflux port 211 is closer to the inlet 213 than the outlet 214.

Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the structure and core idea of ​​this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope based on the idea of ​​this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
